  14. started the first day of a 4 day conifer removal job today. all chip and timber staying on site. we moved a small prunus to facilitate the felling of the first conifer which fitted into the garden with about 3 ft to spare. the 2nd tree was being dismantled to about 8ft and the owners are going to build a tree house up it. nightmare with the chipper again today as it threw its belts about midday for some reason, so half the brash from the 2nd tree had to get stacked. im teaching tomorrow so will be back wednesday to carry on the conifer carnage the job is at a deer sanctuary in the new forest oh and a pretty poor qaulity video of alex knocking a top out [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFFBB-rufHg]YouTube - alextop.3GP[/ame] the back cut looks like it is sloping towards the hinge, im not sure why? but it wasnt
